Look at the eyes of your typical cartoon animal. More often than not they will not resemble those of the animal they are based upon. Instead, they have generic bright cartoony eyes placed forward on the head. These are vaguely humanlike with scleras, pupils, and sometimes colorful (often blue) irises. Sometimes the scleras will be a different colour, like yellow or green, (possibly to suggest 'wildness',) but since few animals other than humans have easily visible sclera at all, it's no more natural. The sclerae on cartoon animals (including cartoon humans) will usually be much more easily visible than on real vertebrate animals and even real humans. The reason, of course, is to humanize the critters and make their facial expressions readable. Of all animals, cats and snakes are most often exceptions to this rule, both having eerie green or yellow eyes with slit pupils. This absolutely has something to do with the Cats Are Mean and Reptiles Are Abhorrent tropes. This can look downright weird where animals with eyes that are even less human-like are concerned. Where have you ever seen insects with recognizable pupils outside of cartoondom? Other than praying mantises, which actually do seem to have pupils. A variant of this trope is to draw animals which would have sideways-facing eyes in real life, with frontally placed eyes. note Most vertebrate animals' eyes (including rabbits' eyes) are placed on both sides of their heads. Predators tend to have forward-facing eyes, while the predated animals have their eyes sideways (for optimized 360-degree view). Most animals with forward-facing eyes, such as dogs, bears, hawks and eagles, have eyes somewhat more laterally placed than those of humans. Only owls, cats and primates (especially haplorrhine, or dry-nosed, primates) have eyes as forward facing as human eyes. This trope tends to be an Acceptable Break from Reality, to the extent that it can be found in downplayed form even in classical realism paintings, for a couple of reasons: Firstly, it makes it easier to animate the animal(ish) character's eyes and facial expressions, and to convey their actual mood. The real-world facial expressions of horses, for instance, mostly involve subtle positioning of their ears and nostrils, with their eyes basically having various levels of "open" and "closed". To the uninitiated, this results in "angry" looking nearly identical to "happy", "scared", and "sees attractive mare". In many classical battlefield paintings, for instance, the freakishly exaggerated rolling eyes and furrowed eyebrows seen on horses are an intentional effort to avert the (seeming) Dissonant Serenity in the slightly-widened eyes of a panicking or enraged warhorse. Secondly, it also helps avert a certain amount of the Unintentional Uncanny Valley effect which can result from putting exaggerated expressions on the faces of many animals, particularly when seen from straight-on. Not employing this trope in such cases via things like Cheated Angles and adding eyebrow ridges to animals without them note such as kangaroos, some dog breeds, deer, rabbits and horses can look, to put it in technical terms, "damned freaky". note See also: Victorian taxidermists' ill-advised attempts to give whimsical expressions and large anthropomorphic eyes to taxidermied animals. This seems to be related to Toothy Bird and Feather Fingers, in that it is a relatively slight Anthropomorphic Shift. The thing is, the vast majority of vertebrate animals in real-life have eyes that contain roughly the same anatomy as a human's. They just look somewhat different due to different specializations. Some artists are of the opinion that their animal characters should have more realistic (within reason) eyes, as many animal eyes simply look beautiful and cool. See also Animal Eyes and Big Anime Eyes. Not to be confused with Sphere Eyes or Conjoined Eyes. As this is such an Omnipresent Trope, instead of listing every cartoon character ever, we will list the... |

Huge exceptions: Finding Nemo, and the fish in SpongeBob SquarePants (One of the characters in the show has both of his eyes placed on one side of his head.) Flounder from The Little Mermaid (1989), Jabberjaw, Misterjaw from the 90-minute Pink Panther show and Cleo from Pinocchio have 'em, too. The Incredible Mr. Limpet even wears pince-nez glasses. (Although they're not pince-nez when he's human.) |

A Bug's Life: With the exception of the flies, all the insects have cartoony human-like eyes. Why the flies are, of all bugs, singled out to have realistic compound eyes is anyone's guess, aside from the fact that of all insects, flies are the ones best known for the two compound eyes characteristic of insects. | |

Robin Hood (1973) examples: Alan A Dale the rooster has pink sclerae. The rhino guards have orange sclerae. Prince John the maneless lion, Sir Hiss the snake, the Sheriff of Nottingham (a wolf), and the owls have yellow sclerae. The former three, especially the Sheriff, have them to emphasize their sneakiness. Lady Kluck the hen and Otto the hound dog have light yellow sclerae. |

Captain Marvel enemy Mr Mind used to be a straight example◊; a Venusian "worm" with Cartoony Eyes, who wore glasses. Post-Crisis he looked more like a realistic caterpillar◊ and the "whites" of his eyes could be explained as a caterpillar's false "eyespots". The current Mr Mind (that version's offspring) attempts to maintain continuity with past versions, while giving him insectile compound eyes◊, with a result that lies somewhere between Ugly Cute and terrifying. | |

Twang/Flute from the Stitch! anime has purple irises and blue scleras. He's also working for Hämsterviel with an 'H' marking as mentioned above, so it's unknown if his eyes are different if he's not supposedly brainwashed by him. | |

Dug the dog in Up is an extreme example — not only are his eyes facing forward, but they are also almost touching each other. The other dogs in the movie are more realistic looking, though their eyes face forward more than they should. | |

Tika the elephant in Barbie as the Island Princess has huge glassy eyes, which are not only much bigger than a real elephant's, but also much closer together on her face. | |

Alvin and the Chipmunks and the Chippetes are usually portrayed with forward-facing eyes. Averted with the earliest incarnations of Alvin, Simon, and Theodore in which they look like real chipmunks, laterally-placed eyes and all. | |

Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, Donald Duck, and Chip 'n Dale from Classic Disney Shorts, although Donald's eyes were always a little farther apart (more noticeable in his early designs). Daisy's and Chip 'n Dale's eyes were always a little farther apart than Mickey's or Minnie's eyes too. | |

In The Secret of NIMH, while this trope is played straight most of the time, the rats' eyes are portrayed as being more realistic before they were experimented on. | |

Kinyonga the chameleon from The Lion Guard has eyes that are accurate for a chameleon. In fact, her eyes are more accurate to her species than that of any of the other animals in the show. | |

Kermit the Frog has obviously cartoony eyes, but he has pupils more appropriate for an actual frog. Many other Muppet characters have eyes appropriate for their species — a few even use taxidermy eyes! | |
